Pater Sato,
Japanese/American (1945 - 1994)
Born in
Yokosuka, Japan in 1945, Pater Sato's real name is Yoshinori Sato. From an early age he was interested in art
and theatre. In high school he played
his first theatrical role as "Pater" in The Diary of Anne Frank. He liked the name of his character so much he
made it his own. His career path
included work for newspapers, acting troupes and graphic designers. His work also brought him to New York, where
he worked with Paul Jenkins, a well-known artist of abstract paintings.
In 1972 he
returned to Japan and began work as a freelance artist. He created illustrations for magazines such
as Paper Moon Graphics and Playboy. His
work has been included in group exhibitions around the world. He also had many one-man shows in the United
States and Japan. Pater Sato is no
longer with us, but his beautiful work remains as a legacy of his incredible
vision and talent.
The feminine
form and personality have inspired some of the world's most celebrated works of
art. By using various combinations of
media and techniques, artists have created paintings, sculptures and other art
forms reflecting the beauty and sensuousness of women. Pater Sato created the
"Sophistication" and "Chic" serigraphs as part of the
"Images of Women" portfolio.
This portfolio attempted to distil the essence of femininity. Sato provides a comprehensive look at his
perception of women. He portrays
contemporary women with vivid compositions and inspires a spirit of adventure.
